[Dx4win] Check For Updates Won't Run

Sat Mar 31 09:41:03 EDT 2018

This is not a XP issue, it is a *Paul issue at DX4Win to fix*.   If you can
open the www URL at listed, then there is nothing wrong with XP.  As an
aside I can update N1MM+ with no issues. And load new versions of WSJT
without any problems.
